Because v1 x v2 + v2 x (-v1) = v1 x v2 - v2 x v1 = v1 x v2 - v1 x v2 = 0, vector (v1,v2) is orthogonal to (v2,-v1);
Let (a,b) be an unit vector orthogonal to (9,40);
So, a^2 + b^2 = 1 and a x 9 + b x 40 = 0;
Then, a = - 40 x b / 9;
Finally, 160 x b^2 / 81 + b^2 = 1;
160 x b^2 + 81 x b^2 = 81;
241 x b^2 = 81;
b^2 = 81 / 241;
b = + or - 9/\sqrt{241}
a = + or - 40/\sqrt{241}
We have (+40/\sqrt{241};9/\sqrt{241}) and (-40/\sqrt{241};-9/\sqrt{241});

Answer:

\hat{u_1}=(\frac{40}{41},-\frac{9}{40}) and \hat{u_2}=(\frac{-40}{41},\frac{9}{41})

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that v=(v_1,v_2) be a vector in R^2.

We have to show that (v_2,-v_1) is orthogonal to v.We have to find the two unit vector orthogonal to the given vector v=(9,40).

Orthogonal vectors:If two vectors u and v are orthogonal then

u\cdot v=u_1v_2+u_2v_1=0

Using this condition

(v_1,v_2)\cdot (v_2,-v_1)

=v_1v_2-v_2v_1=0

Hence, (v_2,-v_1) is orthogonal to v.

By using this fact then, we get

u_1=(40,-9) is orthogonal to v=(9,40)

Unit vector=\frac{\vec{a}}{\mid a\mid}

\mid u_1\mid=\sqrt{(40)^2+(-9)^2}=41

\hat{u_1}=(\frac{40}{41},-\frac{9}{40})

u_2=(-40,9) is orthogonal to v=(9,40)

\mid u_2\mid=\sqrt{(-40)^2+9^2}=41

\hat{u_2}=(\frac{-40}{41},\frac{9}{41})

The two unit vectors which are orthogonal to given vector v=(9,40) are given by

\hat{u_1}=(\frac{40}{41},-\frac{9}{40}) and \hat{u_2}=(\frac{-40}{41},\frac{9}{41})

A bicycle store costs ​$4200 per month to operate. The store pays an average of ​$75 per bike. The average selling price of each
Lelechka [254]

Store should sell about 31 bicycle for average price of $135 each bicycle.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • To find bike we need Algebra to solve the equation.
  • when x = 1 , Y = 135 *x
  • When x 2 , Y = 135 *2
  • Formula you could apply to go for break even y = 135*x
  • Bicycle store pays about $4200
  • Algebra used for every business and working to make easy task.
  • It takes about 31 bicycle a month to get into break even.
  • Every store needs break even to not incur lost.
  • Break even point is equilibrium between income and expenses.

A cylinder has a height of h inches and a diameter of 3 inches. If the height of the cylinder is 3 inches, what is the volume?
Genrish500 [490]

Answer:

V=21.21

Step-by-step explanation:

Plug the measurements into the equation of a cylinder (V=πr^2h) to get the volume. Remember to divide the diameter by 2 to get the radius

What is an equation for the translation of (x – 2)2 + (y + 1)2  = 16  by 3 units left
Akimi4 [234]
Answer: ( x + 1)² + (y - 4)² = 16

Explanation:

1) The given equation,  ( x - 2)² + (y + 1)² = 16, represents a circumference with center (2,-1) and radius √16 = 4.

1) The translation will not modify the radius of the circunference, siince translations are rigid transformations.

2) The translation 3 units to the left and 5 units upward certainly will move the center of the circunference.

This is how:

(x,y) → (x - 3, y + 5)

(2, -1) → (2 - 3, - 1 + 5) = (- 1, 4)

3) Then, keeping the same radius and being the center (-1,4), the equation of the circumference after the translation will be:

( x + 1)² + (y - 4)² = 16 ← answer
